by Paul Davis
This year will see the in-auguration
of Dr. George K.
Brushaber as president of
Bethel College and Seminary.
The inauguration will be
held Friday, Nov. 12 at 10
a.m. A communion service for
faculty, staff and administra-tion
will be held on Thurs.,
Nov. 11 at 7:30 p.m. in the
Seminary Chapel, and there
will be a reception following
the ceremonies in the Semi-nary
Dining Center.
Another event of the day
will be the visit of Their
Majesties King Carl XVI
Gustav and Queen Silvia, of
Sweden. According to the in-augural
committee, the visit

Their Majesties King Carl
XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia
of Sweden are scheduled to
arrive at 1:50 p.m. at the Scan-dia
chapel on Friday, Nov. 12.
"There will be top level se-curity,"
said Gerry Wessman,
Assistant to the Vice Presi-dent
for Public Affairs and
Bethel's representative on the
Academic Advisory Counsel
of Scandinavia Today-Minne-sota.
Two security officials
from Sweden will be present,
as well as numerous U.S. se-curity
officers.
There are 27 in the imme-diate
royal entourage, includ-ing
the ambassador of Sweden
and other government offi-cials.
Twenty-one members
of the Swedish press will also
be present.
The Royal party will be
met by the Bethel Concert
Band, then greeted by Presi-dent
Brushaber and President-
Emeritus Carl Lundquist.
Everyone is invited to attend
this opening salute.
At 2:05 p.m. the Royal party
will walk to the seminary
chapel, weather permitting,
for a 20-minute program by
the Bethel College Choir and
President Brushaber, who will
speak on the significance of
our present , and future rela-tion.
"We encourage students to
come and see the King and
Queen and be a part of the
day's events. This is an his-toric
occasion at Bethel. It is
only the fourth time a presi-dent
has been inaugurated,
and the first time a sitting
head of state has been on
campus," said Tom Johnson,
executive assistant to the
president. -
Bethel has sent 7000 invita-tions,
and expects a full house.
Delegates representing approxi-mately
100 educational institu-tions,
learned societies, and
other organizations are expect-ed
to attend. Bethel students
will receive invitations to the
convocation ceremony via the
POs.

Brushaber will deliver the in-auguration
address. The Fes-tival
Choir and the Bethel
Band will also perform. Ger-ard
B. Sundberg, assistant
professor of music, will sing a
solo. "We are trying to get as
much of the community in-volved
in all of the events as
we can," said Johnson.
There will also be a combi-nation
of events at lunchtime,
said Johnson. Luncheons will
be set up for the visiting dele-gates.
According to Judy Hel-man,
assistant manager in
food service, the Coffee Shop
will be full of people and stu-dents
will find it difficult if
not impossible to buy lunch
there. To solve this problem,
the food service will be pro-viding
a box-lunch for stu-dents.
An area will be set up
in the AC lounge for the dis-tribution
of these lunches.
Students on the meal-plan can
pray for th -Junch in that way.
According to Johnson, the
administration hopes that all
students will participate in
the events on Nov. 12. "This is
a community affair," said
Johnson, "and we hope the
entire Bethel community will
participate."

"Our growth will be in the
quality of the college and sem-inary,"
said President George
K. Brushaber of the next
years. "We need new pro-grams
to meet the needs of the
1980s and 1990s."
Brushaber, who assumed
the position of President of
Bethel College and Seminary
on Sept. 1, 1982, will be inau-garated
into office on Friday,
Nov. 12. He previously served
as dean of the college.
"The next eight to ten years
will be a period of great diffi-culty
for private colleges," he
said. He said he would like to
see the combined enrollment
of the schools stay at 2500. He
would like to see some build-ings
built and the campus
finished.
Acknowledging the fact
that the pool of available stu-dents
is decreasing, he cites
four reasons that students
will continue to be attracted
to Bethel: 1) a unique perspec-tive
on education as a school
with a purpose and mission,
2) the consistently expert
manner in which Bethel does
things and demands from the
students, 3) a growing na-tional
reputation, and 4) ex-panded
scholarship funds.
"The strength of the institu-tion
is the sense of unity and
high goals among the stu-dents,
faculty and adminis-tration.
I think that is a sign
of health in a community,"
Brushaber said. "To like it
here and like one another is
time well spent."
"I want Bethel to be a ser-vant
school," he said. One
way which he stated was as a
servant to the community. In
addition to seeing the students
involved in the community he
would like to see the com-munity
involved with the
schools.
"Our words and lives should
be consistent witnesses to
Christ," he said of Bethel's
evangelistic role in the com-munity.
"Bethel has enjoyed a
good relationship between the
schools and the community.
In general, the students have
been highly respected because
they do not create trouble,
they are good workers and
they are responsible."
Having served as president
for two months, Brushaber
said the most difficult part for
him has been the need to be
speaking to so many different
groups. "It takes a great deal
of time for preparing and al-ways
being ready to speak to
any group or subgroup," he
said.

I would like to comment on
the cartoon that appeared in
the Clarion on Oct. 29. Nik
Dag was the subject matter of
the cartoon, which represent-ed
the "Bethel woman" as con-niving
and the "Bethel man"
as arrogant.
I am opposed to Nik Dag
primarily because of the stereo-types
promoted by this event.
I would assume that the Clar-ion
supports the attitude re-flected
in the cartoon.
I was very disappointed in
the Nik Dag cartoon, and I
hope the Clarion will not con-tinue
to support such an im-mature

Task Force was appointed by
President Lundquist in 1980-
81 to concentrate on the her-itage
of Bethel. As a result,
Bethel's Festival of Christmas
was entirely Scandinavian
and several other events fea-tured
the Scandinavian heri-tage.
The King's schedule, both
at Bethel and in Minnesota, is
very tight. His departure from
Bethel is planned at 2:35, mak-ing
the visit a brief 45 min-utes.

Fall term, too, needs
mid-semester break
Wednesday: Bible paper due, math quiz. Thursday: chem-istry
study group meets, chemistry mid-term. Friday: read-ing
report due. Monday: Nik Dag began, subject for final
paper due. Tuesday: work, catch up on all reading. Wednes-day:
journal review, Bible study .. .
In the past few weeks we have all experienced schedules
which looked like this. Just one thing right after the other.
The problem is that it does not end and there is just no time
to re-energize.
Fall semester has always been a difficult semester for
most students in comparison to spring semester. With due
dates and pressures beginning in September and continuing
for about 12 weeks, burnout runs high. We have a mid-term
break in the spring which helps to alleviate the pressures of
academia.
We need a fall break. A fall break would give us a chance
to catch up on studying and a chance to relax. It would pro-vide
faculty a chance to catch up on work and also to relax.
We simply cannot function at our peaks for 12 weeks. A
break would allow us to gather our thoughts and catch up
on sleep, thus enabling us to perform during the last half of
the semester at a higher level.
Having a fall break would mean a new arrangement of the
calendar. We would have to start earlier as most other
schools do. We need to seriously consider the addition of a
break and what the implications would be on our physical
health, academic performance and psychological health.

Metropolitan area
celebrates Scandinavia
by Amy Goss
"Scandinavia Today" is a
nine-month American cele-bration
of contemporary Scan-dinavian
culture. This cele-bration
is planned for three
American cities, and opened
in Minneapolis Friday, Sept.
10.
A visit from King Olav V of
Norway on Oct. 5 -9 and the
upcoming tour of Swedish
royalty highlight the celebra-tion.
Cultural events through-out
the Twin Cities carry a
Scandinavian emphasis, too.
Major performing centers and
museums have scheduled
Scandinavian exhibitions,
performing centers and mu-seums
have scheduled Scan-dinavian
exhibitions, con-certs,
and productions as part
of this season's offerings.
Sept. 11 was the celebra-tion
at the Hubert H. Humph-rey
Metrodome. Three of Scan-dinavia's
best known choirs
plus top Twin Cities profes-sional
choirs joined to form a
7,000 member choir. Bethel
was asked to participate in
this choir, and 47 alumni,
faculty and administration
members, and students joined
in the celebration. They were
accompanied by the Minne-sota
Concert Band.
The 7,000 voice core choir
was joined by the audience to
form a massive choir of over
40,000 people. This broke the
record for the world's largest
choir.

'N0000," the rag puppet shrieked as it tumbled through the
air. The puppet made a muffled thump as it hit the wall on the
opposite side of the bedroom. As eight-year-old Billy sat on the
edge of his bed and stared at the lifeless lump of rags the
puppet did it again, it spoke. "You little cuss, can't you see how
much you hurt me?"
'You can't hurt, you're not real," Bills retorted.
"Heck if I'm not!" The lump of rags on the floor began to
move.
"Stop moving," Bills said as he hopped down off the bed and
walked over to the puppet. "You're an object, and objects can't
feel." Billy bent down, picked the puppet up by a leg and
winged it across the room. The puppet made no sound as it
rolled off the top of the dresser and then on to the floor. "That
should teach you, you stupid puppet."
"Teach me what?" the puppet asked, "that you have no
feelings either?"
"I have feelings." Billy shrugged his shoulders. "I'm real."
"Why do you treat me like a toy then?" The puppet sat us and
leaned against the wall.
"Because that's what you are." Billy smiled.
"That's where you're wrong. You don't see how real I am.
Who do you play with when your friends can't play? Who do
you talk to when no one else will listen? Who do you hold on to
when you cry? Who do you tell secrets to when you don't want
anyone else to hear? Who do you hurt when you become
angry? Huh, answer me this." The puppet refastened the
safety pin that secured his right hand to the arm.
"You, I guess." Billy sat on the edge of the bed with a
confused look on his face.
"Then how can I not be real?" questioned the puppet.
"I'm not sure, but I guess you really feel." Billy picked up the
puppet from off the floor and set it on the pillow next to him.
The puppet smiled as it looked up at Billy. "Many times
actions are misunderstood and it's easy to hurt someone you
care for. I know that you feel, Billy, I just needed to hear it from
you."
"You spoke, you are more than a toy. Honest." Billy climbed
under the covers and hugged the puppet tight as he fell asleep.
The next morning as the sun shown bright through the
window the puppet woke up, put Billy back in the toy box and
went off to school. .

Attitude key in coping with stress
by Tammy Gregersen
With winter approaching,
preparations must be made to
ensure efficient snow remov-al
and human comfort in the
buildings. The physical plant
has these adjustments already
underway.,
"We haVe a contractor, Ash-back

said Ron Sprecher, head
groundsman in the physical
plant. "They plow 3 rows in
the East lot, the entire West
lot, and if there's a lot of snow
on the roads, they help there,
too. They have both a grader
and a front loader."
"We (Bethel) have two
trucks with snow plows," said
Sprecher. "We do most of the
plowing and sanding of the
roads. Bethel has just recently

"We shovel all the walks,

students who live on

Sprecher encourages people
to be patient and drive slowly.
"I don't know what's going

A feeling commonly shared
by college students at mid-semester
is that of being over-whelmed.
The classic scene is
a student who has stayed up
all night catching up on home-work
only to realize a 10-page
paper is due for tomorrow.
"Stress is basically tension
that can be generated by a
gap between expectation and
reality," said W. Muck, professor
of psychology. According to
Flossie Winquist, director of
Health Service, there are two
types of stress—physical and
emotional. Today most peo-ple
think of stress as bad, but
according to Muck this is not
true. "Stress is not good or
bad in itself, but rather in
what we let it do to us."
to put snow piles. It will defi-nitely
be a challenge."
Jim Woods, director of the
physical plant said, "Adjust-ments
must be made inside as
well as outside. We change
over from air conditioning to
heating. The change-over per-iod
is difficult, with some
days being hot and others
being cold."
"We also check out the heat-ing
systems," said Woods. "We
make sure the pumps and
boilers are working properly
and check the fuel supply."
- "We usually burn gas in the
boilers but the utility com-pany
has the right to deny us
more gas in extremely cold
One of the main causes of
stress is change. Change in
lifestyle occurs through such
things as personal loss or job
changes. Winquist said com-mon
stress that occurs with
college students is change
through breaking up of rela-tionships
and interpersonal
roommate relationships. She
emphasized changes freshmen
go through in separation from
home and unrealistic expec-tations
of the homework level.
Stress can stem from an ideal-istic
view of oneself or others,
said Muck.
The first signs of stress are
"confusion, lack of energy or
inability to sort things out,"
said Muck. Stress can also
lead into physical symptoms.
According to Winquist, it is
weather when the demand is
high," said Woods. "NSP calls
and tells us we must burn oil
instead of gas, so we use our
underground storage tanks."
often hard to distinguish be-tween
stress and disease. Stu-dents
who come in with head-aches,
rashes or increased
blood pressure might be ex-periencing
the results of stress.
Muck and Winquist agree
that stress is a problem at
Bethel. "Stress becomes un-manageable
at mid-semester
when the individual realizes
the semester is half over but
only one tenth of the work is
done," said Muck. After the
first month of school the stress
starts and keeps rising," said
Winquist.
Certain characteristics can
cause some individuals to be
more bothered by stress than
others. An example Muck
gave was the unstructured
individual who refuses to set
priorities. However, accord-ing
to Winquist, people who
are high-strung or perfection-ists
who are too organized are
also prone to stress.
Muck said students should
ask themselves two questions:
1) Are you realistic in your
expectations? 2) Have you
made a schedule for all you
have to do? By answering
these questions the student
can decide what the priorities
are. Another key, according
to Winquist, is talking prob-lems
over with a close friend.
Taking a break and exercis-ing
can also relieve frustra-tions.
Learning how to cope with
stress will make midterms
bearable and other tough situ-ations
liveable. "Stress is a
fact of life; the key is learning
how to handle it and how to
have the right attitude," said
Winquist.
"Stress is a particular
American problem," said
Muck. "Use it instead of let-ting
it destroy you."

On Nov. 11 the fourth an-nual
parents' weekend will
commence.
According to Curt Fauth,
alumni director, the purpose
of this weekend is to give par-ents
the opportunity to meet
each other and to meet faculty,
staff, and administration.
Fauth said, "We want to
provide an avenue for parents
to come on campus and ob-serve
their students' lives in
the academic, spiritual, and
social aspects."

The Anorexic/Bulimic Sup-port
Group provides support
and encouragement for those
individuals who have these
eating disorders.
Anorexia Nervosa is a com-plex
and sometimes fatal dis-order
that afflicts a largely
young, female population.
This quest for thinness had
dramatically increased over
the past ten years. Bulimia is
similar in the desire for being
thin but this disorder deals
with hinging food followed
by vomiting.
Beth Peterson, instructor of
psychiatric and mental health
nursing, was recruited by
Marilyn Starr one year ago to
attend a seminar for anorexia
and bulimia. After attending
a workshop, she became in-terested
in starting a support
group.
"Our primary function is to
support one another. It's a
hard thing to be anorexic or
bulimic because other people
can't understand their [those
suffering from the disorders]
feelings and emotions,"
Peterson said.
During the weekly sessions,
attended by four or five stu-ner
for parents, students, and
teachers, in honor of Dr.
George K. Brushaber, the
fourth president of Bethel Col-lege
and Seminary. The stu-dents
and parents may use
the student's meal plan to pay
for the dinner.
Entertainment for the eve-ning
will be by John and Caro-lyn
Nordquist, duo-pianists;
Brian Sundberg, violinist; and
the Women's Choir. Beth Kuh-nen
and Reverend Frank Doten
will speak on student and
parent expectations of a pres-ident.
Dr. Brushaber will close
the program.
dents, the group attempts to
solve problems in both social
and Christian perspectives
while encouraging changes in
behavior, Peterson said.
Peterson is concerned with
how the Bethel community
responds to anorexia and
bulimia.
Encouragement is neces-sary
because these women
face an ongoing struggle with
eating, Peterson said. "Some-times
even a simple walk
through the cafeteria is an
extremely difficult experi-ence."
Committee
by Bonnie Coleman
For the second consecutive
year, the Student Center
Forum Committee will organ-ize
and host forums that deal
with controversial issues per-tinent
to the Bethel commun-ity.
The committee was formed
last interim by Greg Hamann,
director of residence life for
management, and former sen-ator,
senior Ron Nelson. "We
said that there wasn't any-thing
being done to raise
awareness on campus," ex-plained
Hamann.

Under the guidance of the
campus ministries staff and
Gospel Team Coordinator
Amy Koelz, eight gospel teams
have become involved in min-istering
to people in the Twin
Cities area.
"There are a lot of purposes
for the forming of gospel
teams," said Koelz. "The pri-mary
one is ministering.. The
gospel teams are a channel for
ministry, to glorify God and
to minister to people."
Four of the groups are re-turning
from last year, while
the others are new. Once audi-tions
for new people were
completed, and new groups
The Special Projects Com-mittee
of the Student Senate
will oversee the forum com-mittee
this year. "The purpose
of the forum committee is to
bring five to ten people to-gether
from the student body
to determine, and successfully
communicate, controversial
issues students are interested
in, or aren't sufficiently aware
of," said senior Dennis Fuller,
chairman of the Special Pro-jects
Committee.
Forums last year focused
on political issues in Central
America and the Middle East.
formed, it was time for work.
Each of the new groups had to
choose a name, pick out music,
and decide rehearsal times.
There are guidelines for the
music that can be performed,
said Koelz, but most of it is
just common sense.
Koelz and campus minis-tries
are responsible for the
concerts that the gospel teams
perform. Occasionally a team
member wants to do a concert
at a certain organization in
the area (for example, a home
church). This has to be cleared
and arranged by Koelz and
campus ministries, and usu-ally
the idea becomes reality.
"They gave me a better under-standing
of current issues, pre-senting
the pros and cons,"
said junior Steve Van Sickle.
"Forums give students a
chance for ownership, taking
a stance on an issue," Hamann
said. "They're also an arena
where Bethel's student organ-izations,
like the Peace and
Justice Committee, can get
involved."
According to Fuller, this
year's forum committee will
try to explore a major world
and political issue, along with
an "in-house" issue unique to
At the beginning of the
semester, Koelz sent letters to
150 churches and organiza-tions
in the area, telling them
of the availability of Bethel
gospel teams for concerts.
The amount of music done
in a concert is usually decided
by the host organization,
whether it is ten minutes or
an hour. Singing, though, said
Koelz, is not the only thing
the groups do.
"They (the gospel teams)
do a lot of sharing and wit-nessing.
We encourage them
to spend their time after con-certs
talking with people, just
talkng and sharing with them
for a while," said Koelz.
Koelz explained that being
part of a gospel team is an
outreach for the students. It
gives them an outlet, develop-ing
the group members' abili-ties
to communicate and wit-ness.
Although the majority of
performances given by gospel
teams are done at churches,
they are not the only places.
Youth conventions, caps, ban-quets,
and nursing homes are
other locations that are visited
by gospel teams.
"Promise" has made a chap-el
appearance this year, and
Koelz is hoping that more of
the groups will be used in
chapel services. She looks for
them to become a bigger part
of Bethel activities throughout
the year.
"The groups are fantastic
this year," said Koelz. "They

Shuttle service depends on demand
by Tim Nelson
Are you tired of
hitch-hiking, bumbing rides
or borrowing your roommate's
car? If so, you might be inter-ested
in the idea of a shuttle
service to Rosedale and Har-
Mar malls.
"The service will take peo-ple
to the malls and possibly
to jobs close by," said Paul
Drake, director of auxiliary
services.
No date has been set to
start the service. "We're run-ning
a statistically sound feas-ibility
survey of students to
see if they need the service,"
said Brad Smuland, student
by Deborah Nelson
Students are well aware of
rising tuition costs, but few
are aware of campaigns like
the Royal Investors Dinner,
which collects money to lower
student payments.
"We estimate a student
would have to pay about
$1000 more a year if we didn't
have fund-raising events like
the dinner," said Dan Wier-sum,
director of annual fund.
"It affects students more than
they sometimes realize."
An annual financial appeal
gathers alumni and friends
for a complimentary dinner,

distribution of pledge cards

The dinner has become a
On Oct. 29-30 Bethel was
represented at the Pike's Peak
Invitational at Colorado Col-lege,
one of the largest debate
tournaments in the country.
Over 40 colleges and univer-sities
and almost 70 debate
teams engaged in competition,
debating the national resolu-tion—"
Resolved: That a uni-lateral
freeze by the United
States on the production and
development of nuclear weap-ons
would be desirable." This
is the third year that Bethel
has sent teams to this tourna-ment.
Representing Bethel in de-bate
were Gordon Fowler and
Debbie Van Mark along with
D. Scott Williamson and Laura
Stratton. In the eight rounds
of competition Fowler and Van
Mark secured a 4-4 record
and Williamson and Stratton
pulled off a 3-5 record.
In individual competition,
senior Mike Wiseman made it
to the semi-finals in impromp-tu
speaking and took second
place in communication analy-sis
with a prepared speech
in charge of the survey. "De-cember
is the projected date if
approved by the administra-tion,
with the service becom-ing
effective in January," he
said.
"The shuttle service is pos-sible
if people will use it,"
said Drake. "At 25 cents a
ride—each way-15.5 riders
will be needed each trip to
break even. That means we
would need 3,229.6 riders per
month to avoid a loss," he
added.
The service would make

This year the guest list had to
be limited to 3400. The Sept. 1
event grossed $139,000 in gifts
and pledges.
The success of the function
prompted the public affairs
office to consider holding the
dinner in additional locations.
Three regional cities: Chicago,
Denver and Seattle, were
proposed because of the large
concentration of alumni.
"The Investors Dinners give
us a chance to communicate
Bethel to our major donors,"
said Gerry Wessman, assis-tant
to the vice president in
public affairs. "It is exciting
to include more cities."

rance, labor and rental of a

An alternative source of
transportation would be car
pools. "There is a possibility
of using students' cars for the
car pools," said Smuland.
"The whole project depends
upon the student response to
show a need to the adminis-tration,"
said Smuland.
Even if the administration
approves of the service, it
would have to pay for itself to
be continued. In 1980, Bethel
had a similar service for a few
months, but it was cancelled
when students failed to fill
the seats.
The Oct. 29 Seattle dinner
attracted approximately 85
guests and collected $4,160.
Pres. Brushaber addressed
each audience with a speech
entitled "A Due Sense of
Responsibility." The 30 min-ute
talk emphasized the en-couragement
Bethel students
receive to live up to their
Christian duties.
A musical production, di-rected
by Julie Bjoin, was pre-sented
at the St. Paul and
Chicago dinners. Bjoin, a 1982
Bethel graduate, led a seven-member
student and alumni
group in the piano-accom-panied
performance. Finan-cial
considerations prevented
the production's travel to the
Seattle dinner.
A- program patterned after
the Royal Investors dinner is
the Sunbelt Dinner. The early
spring event is actually a se-ries
of dinners held in Florida
and Arizona. The appeals are
designed to inform and attract
retired people who are friends
of Bethel. "We don't look for
immediate money from the
Sunbelt Dinners," Wiersum
reports, "but use them as a
cultivating tool to keep peo-ple
interested in Bethel."

The Campus Coordinators
are sponsoring a spring ski
vacation for all Bethel stu-dents.
The group will travel
to Salt Lake City, Utah, for
five full days of downhill ski-ing
at a cost of $285.
Included in the price are
round-trip bus fare, lodging
for seven nights plus a free
pass to a health spa, large
daily breakfasts, and five
days of lift tickets.
The group will be staying
at the Quality Inn in Salt Lake
City. There will be four stu-dents
to a room.
"The bus we take out will
shuttle to approximately nine
of the surrounding areas," said
Tom Persico. These areas are:
Sundance, Snowbird, Alta,
Solitude, Brighton, Park City,
Deer Valley, Park West, and
Parley's Summit.
There are presently 49 re-served
spaces for the group.
"We will probably add another
bus if more than that sign up,"
Persico says.
Although Bethel's orches-tra
has been part of the col-lege
for a number of years, the
idea to have the outside com-munity
join was recent. The
ages of the musicians range
from college to retirement,
with a few high school stu-dents.
According to Olson, having
a community orchestra is an
excellent opportunity to dem-onstrate
what the liberal arts
concept involves. It gives con-tinuing
experience to the
adult amateur player and
shows the student that there
is a reason to continue play-ing
_once out of school.
Each student will be asked
to sign a contract/agreement
covering such things as insur-ance
and the Lifestyle State-ment.
"There will be no cur-fews,
but those violating the
lifestyle will be flown home
at their expense, and we will
not hesitate to do that," said
Persico.
There will be a payment
schedule for the trip begin-ning
with a $50 deposit due
November 8. Three $50. pay-ments
will be made during
the weeks of December 6 to
10, January 10 to 14, and Feb-ruary
14 to 18. A final pay-.
ment will be made during the
week of March 7 to 11.
Persico advises students
who do not have their own
equipment to rent it before
the trip. "It'll be less of a has-sle
that way," he said.
"Lessons will be extra, and
will have to be arranged on
your own once we get out
there if you want to take
them," said Persico.
The music department lo-cates
musicians in the area by
advertising in local papers
and churches or it contacts
individuals such as alumni.
Olson, who has conducted
the orchestra in previous
years, said, "I enjoy it very
much because it gives me an-other
opportunity in music
literature and to enjoy the
medium."
The music literature to be
selected for the concert per-formances
will range from
Mozart's era to the present and
include pieces from the bar-oque,
classical and romantic
,periods.

Nurse with Ecuadorian experience loins faculty
by Lori Boberg
A colorful picture collage of
friends from Ecuador hangs
in Nancy Larson's office. It
recalls the 13 years of her
nursing career that were spent
there. Larson, a new faculty
member, is an assistant pro-fessor
in nursing.
Two years after finishing
her nursing degree, Larson
had her first encounter with
Ecuador. She worked for a
summer there. "I hated it,"
said Larson, adding that she
was miserable the whole time.
During the next four years
she gained experience by prac-ticing
and teaching nursing in
Minneapolis.
While Larson was teaching
at Methodist Hospital's
School of Nursing in Minnea-polis,
the director of nurses
there heard Larson speak neg-atively
of Ecuador. The direc-tor
said to her, "You go back
to Ecuador." Larson said she
was told not to return home
until she had something posi-tive
to say abbut Ecuador and
by Mark C. Anderson
Trap Door, a new mini LP
by singer-songwriter T-Bone
Burnett, is an album of high
artistic craft and deep corn-passion.
Burnett looks at the
world with his Christ-tinted
vision and finds desperate,
alienated people who have
fallen into its trap doors. With
his honest vision and keen
artistry he has come up with
an album that succeeds on
many levels.
T-Bone Burnett has been
largely influenced by some of
the '60s major pop figures.
His well-crafted lyrics and
folksy, articulate, quivering
voice show a strong Bob
Dylan influence (he was form-erly
in Dylan's Rolling Thun-der
Revue); his guitar and
vocal harmonies echo the
Byrds; and his overall pop/
rock sensibilities have traces
of the Beatles. He has stored
these influences and added
his own distinct style to them.
When I found out that
Burnett is a Christian I lis-tened
to the album with the
specific intention of finding
Christian themes in it. After
playing the first few songs I
felt somewhat let doWn. The
songs said a lot about people
in the world but didn't seem
to say enough about his spir-itual
answer to their situa-tions.
But after a few good
spins of the album, in which I
had made a contribution there.
Larson resigned and left for
Ecuador, planning to be gone
only one year.
Larson began working with
World Radio Missionary Fel-lowship
in its large health
care division. She worked at
missionary hospitals and was
then "loaned" to several other
nursing organizations to work
and teach.
In her role of "equipping
Ecuadorian nurses education-ally
and spiritually" Larson
said she was most committed
to the spiritual aspect. She
spent time working for
Nurses' Christian Fellowship,
an international oi"ganization
listened to what he was saying
instead of looking for what I
wanted to hear, the message
began to sink in.
The last song on the album,
"Trap Door," provides the fo-cus
for the rest of the album.
It is a song full of paradoxes
and it warns against getting
caught on the wrong side of
the paradox. "It's a funny
thing about humility," he
sings," as soon as you know
you're being humble, you're
no longer humble. It's a funny
thing about life—you have to
give up your life to be alive."
Seems to me I've heard that
somewhere before. He sees
that all people are walking,
alone thrugh life and must be .,
aware of the obstacles ip, their:
path, "Tonight we find our-selves
alone at last—watch
out for the trap door."
The rest of the album gives
vignettes of people who have
inspired his need to give this
warning. The opening song,
"Hold on Tight," with its tasty
guitar harmonies and its tone
concerned with evangelism
and discipleship. Throughout
her years in Ecuador Larson
said she was actively involved
in preparing and equipping
Ecuadorian nurses to become
spiritual leaders.
An emphasis on spiritual
preparation is very much a
part of her life. She said she
sees nursing holistically—the
spiritual and practical as-pects
are related. Larson said
Bethel's nursing program will
"incorporate a spiritual per-spective"
while dealing with
practical issues.
Committed to training ha-
!arson, see page 7
that is both victorious and
despairing, is about two des-perate
outcasts who were at
one time friends of the singer.
They have vanished into the
dark side of the world because
they are misunderstood by
the outside world—they are
"judged by fools." T-Bone tells
them with touching sincerity
to "have faith" and "hold on
tight" to life. He tells them, "I
love you like my own life."
His loyalty to these friends
comes through in the songs—
he is not just mouthing empty
words.
"Poetry" is a softer, tender
pop/rock love song. He de-scribes
his love as greater
than everything that he loves
most in life. Whether he is
expressing love towards God
or love towards a girl is not
entirely clear—there are prob-ably
elements of both. But it
is a surrender-all type of love
that is compatible with I Cor-inthians
13. In an album that
deals mainly with the darker
aspects of life, the power of
real love is shown as one
thing that can help people
avoid life's trap doors.
Burnett is a Christian
whose music will probably
be heard more by non-Chris-tians
than Christians, as he is
on Warner Brothers records.
He has already received glow-ing
reviews from the critics
and he could very well be the
songwriter of our decade.

Soccer squad sews up second place
by John Lilleberg
As the final week of confer-ence
play drew to a close, the
Bethel soccer team posted a
7-2-3 record—good for second
place in the MIAC.
The week began with a 4-0
loss to first-place St. John's.
Against the Johnnies, the
Royals were forced to make
line-up changes in the defense
and midfield in order to min-imize
the loss of injured
sweeper Steve Figini. The
changes included moving Bob-by
Clark to defense, Stan
Higgs to midfield and bring-ing
in Sheldon Milbridge in
place of Figini.
Before the team could adjust
to the changes, the Johnnies
had scored three times. The
combination of a powerful St.
John's squad, a small field
and a new line-up proved too
difficult to overcome as the
Royals suffered their second

tional nurses, Larson serves
patients indirectly. She said
she wishes to "prepare nurses
to function as Christians in a
personal setting." National
nurses multiply the efforts of
a single teacher, in this case
Larson, by training others.
"I went to _Ecuador to give,
but it turned out that I was
the_ learner," said Larson. "I
think it takes a long time
before North Americans can
make a contribution in an
underdeveloped country,"
said Larson. She believes in
short-term mission programs,
but said they can be very dis-couraging.
A person cannot
develop a support system in a
short time, said Larson, add-ing
that a longer commitment
is needed.
"I think it's too difficult to
work internationally if you
have never worked across cul-tural
lines." Larson feels that
experience working with near-by
culturally-different groups
is needed to provide skills
that can be applied inter-nationally.
Larson is excited about the
opportunity to be part of a
brand new nursing program
at Bethel. "I see myself as a
trail blazer in the Bethel nurs-ing
program," she said.
Larson attended Bethel for
two years before finishing her
nursing program at North
Park College in Chicago. After
returning to Minneapolis she
received her Master of Science
in nursing at the U of M.
Larson team-teaches Pro-cesses

Things looked almost as
bleak against Gustavus when
the Gusties were up 2-0 mid-way
through the second half.
At this point, a Bobby Clark
goal brought the Royals to
within a point of the Gusties.
Clark's goal seemed to fire the
team up and they began to put
pressure on the Gusties. Late
in the game Greg Barkey drew
a foul in the Gustavus zone.

The Bethel JV soccer team
wrapped up its season with a
loss to St. Thomas 0-1. The
squad completed its season
with a 5-7-1 record, including
five games against varsity
teams from other colleges.
Steve Hunt said, "It was a
disappointing way to end a
fine season. We'll be back rear-ing
to go next fall."
"I think the guys gave it all
they had. We kept the con-stant
flow of substitutes, so
everyone, all 17 guys on the
team, contributed in a note-worthy
manner," JV soccer
coach Brian Bohne said.
"St. Thomas was very_ ag-gressive
and was able to clear
the ball out of the scoring area
before we could capitalize on
the scoring attempt. Since
they were able to control the
ball, it eliminated our offen-sive
attack," Steve "Baldy"
Bauman said.

Gustie goalie to tie the score
at 2-2. The game ended in a
tie, marking the second time
the Royals had come from
behind to tie Gustavus this
season.
Despite the loss to St. John's
and the second-place finish,
the Royals are the defending
state champions. This week
they will seek to defend that
title at the NAIA District 13
playoffs.
"We weren't quite aggres-sive
enough, but we played a
good game," Mark Strohbehn
said.
Coach and announcer Bohne
provided comments which
gave the players and fans
spirit and encouragement.
Bohne said, "I think we fin-ished
up with a real special
bond that we developed
throughout the season, on and
off the field and through extra
activities."
One of the main goals of
this year's squad was to en-courage
and uplift teammates
through positive reinforce-ment.
Bohne was especially
proud of the fact that he
"didn't hear a single negative
word addressed to team-mates."
On Bohne's office door is a
note stating that if the team
defeats St. Thomas, the coach
takes a leap into Lake Valen-tine.
If the team loses, the
whole squad will take a dive.

play with teams like St.
Kate's," said Book. "And al-though
they are a good team,
we should have beaten them."
The Royals got off to a
quick start, winning the first
game, but dropped the next
two games. Bethel rallied to
force the fifth game and even
led 8-7 at one point.
"When we picked up the
pace they couldn't handle it,"
said Book of her team's play.
"They would lull the pace and
we would fall asleep."
In Bethel's second match of
the week against St. Benedict
on Oct. 28, the women went
into a deep sleep on two occa-sions
yet still managed to win
in five games 14-16, 15-13, 15-
3, 13-15 and 15-3.
Bethel led the first game 14-
3 but dropped the next 13
points and the game. The
Royals lost the fourth game in
a similar manner, leading 13-
ing of the meet.
Coach Bill Lau said he was
happy with the meet, even
though he felt the girls could
have done a little better. "But
we were just happy that Linda
(Channer) finished the race,"
he said. "She hadn't run hard
at all the last week and a half
before the meet, and she
probably won't be able to run
hard for at least another week
and a half." he added.

weeks to recover from her leg

This year will see the in-auguration
of Dr. George K.
Brushaber as president of
Bethel College and Seminary.
The inauguration will be
held Friday, Nov. 12 at 10
a.m. A communion service for
faculty, staff and administra-tion
will be held on Thurs.,
Nov. 11 at 7:30 p.m. in the
Seminary Chapel, and there
will be a reception following
the ceremonies in the Semi-nary
Dining Center.
Another event of the day
will be the visit of Their
Majesties King Carl XVI
Gustav and Queen Silvia, of
Sweden. According to the in-augural
committee, the visit
of the Swedish Royalty will
greatly enhance the inaugura-by
Amy Goss
Their Majesties King Carl
XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia
of Sweden are scheduled to
arrive at 1:50 p.m. at the Scan-dia
chapel on Friday, Nov. 12.
"There will be top level se-curity,"
said Gerry Wessman,
Assistant to the Vice Presi-dent
for Public Affairs and
Bethel's representative on the
Academic Advisory Counsel
of Scandinavia Today-Minne-sota.
Two security officials
from Sweden will be present,
as well as numerous U.S. se-curity
officers.
There are 27 in the imme-diate
royal entourage, includ-ing
the ambassador of Sweden
and other government offi-cials.
Twenty-one members
of the Swedish press will also
be present.
The Royal party will be
met by the Bethel Concert
Band, then greeted by Presi-dent
Brushaber and President-
Emeritus Carl Lundquist.
Everyone is invited to attend
this opening salute.
At 2:05 p.m. the Royal party
will walk to the seminary
chapel, weather permitting,
for a 20-minute program by
the Bethel College Choir and
President Brushaber, who will
speak on the significance of
our present , and future rela-tion.
"We encourage students to
come and see the King and
Queen and be a part of the
day's events. This is an his-toric
occasion at Bethel. It is
only the fourth time a presi-dent
has been inaugurated,
and the first time a sitting
head of state has been on
campus," said Tom Johnson,
executive assistant to the
president. -
Bethel has sent 7000 invita-tions,
and expects a full house.
Delegates representing approxi-mately
100 educational institu-tions,
learned societies, and
other organizations are expect-ed
to attend. Bethel students
will receive invitations to the
convocation ceremony via the
POs.

Brushaber will deliver the in-auguration
address. The Fes-tival
Choir and the Bethel
Band will also perform. Ger-ard
B. Sundberg, assistant
professor of music, will sing a
solo. "We are trying to get as
much of the community in-volved
in all of the events as
we can," said Johnson.
There will also be a combi-nation
of events at lunchtime,
said Johnson. Luncheons will
be set up for the visiting dele-gates.
According to Judy Hel-man,
assistant manager in
food service, the Coffee Shop
will be full of people and stu-dents
will find it difficult if
not impossible to buy lunch
there. To solve this problem,
the food service will be pro-viding
a box-lunch for stu-dents.
An area will be set up
in the AC lounge for the dis-tribution
of these lunches.
Students on the meal-plan can
pray for th -Junch in that way.
According to Johnson, the
administration hopes that all
students will participate in
the events on Nov. 12. "This is
a community affair," said
Johnson, "and we hope the
entire Bethel community will
participate."

"Our growth will be in the
quality of the college and sem-inary,"
said President George
K. Brushaber of the next
years. "We need new pro-grams
to meet the needs of the
1980s and 1990s."
Brushaber, who assumed
the position of President of
Bethel College and Seminary
on Sept. 1, 1982, will be inau-garated
into office on Friday,
Nov. 12. He previously served
as dean of the college.
"The next eight to ten years
will be a period of great diffi-culty
for private colleges," he
said. He said he would like to
see the combined enrollment
of the schools stay at 2500. He
would like to see some build-ings
built and the campus
finished.
Acknowledging the fact
that the pool of available stu-dents
is decreasing, he cites
four reasons that students
will continue to be attracted
to Bethel: 1) a unique perspec-tive
on education as a school
with a purpose and mission,
2) the consistently expert
manner in which Bethel does
things and demands from the
students, 3) a growing na-tional
reputation, and 4) ex-panded
scholarship funds.
"The strength of the institu-tion
is the sense of unity and
high goals among the stu-dents,
faculty and adminis-tration.
I think that is a sign
of health in a community,"
Brushaber said. "To like it
here and like one another is
time well spent."
"I want Bethel to be a ser-vant
school," he said. One
way which he stated was as a
servant to the community. In
addition to seeing the students
involved in the community he
would like to see the com-munity
involved with the
schools.
"Our words and lives should
be consistent witnesses to
Christ," he said of Bethel's
evangelistic role in the com-munity.
"Bethel has enjoyed a
good relationship between the
schools and the community.
In general, the students have
been highly respected because
they do not create trouble,
they are good workers and
they are responsible."
Having served as president
for two months, Brushaber
said the most difficult part for
him has been the need to be
speaking to so many different
groups. "It takes a great deal
of time for preparing and al-ways
being ready to speak to
any group or subgroup," he
said.

the cartoon that appeared in

Dag was the subject matter of
the cartoon, which represent-ed
the "Bethel woman" as con-niving

as arrogant.
I am opposed to Nik Dag
primarily because of the stereo-types
promoted by this event.
I would assume that the Clar-ion
supports the attitude re-flected
in the cartoon.
I was very disappointed in
the Nik Dag cartoon, and I

to support such an im-mature

Fall term, too, needs
mid-semester break
Wednesday: Bible paper due, math quiz. Thursday: chem-istry
study group meets, chemistry mid-term. Friday: read-ing
report due. Monday: Nik Dag began, subject for final
paper due. Tuesday: work, catch up on all reading. Wednes-day:
journal review, Bible study .. .
In the past few weeks we have all experienced schedules
which looked like this. Just one thing right after the other.
The problem is that it does not end and there is just no time
to re-energize.
Fall semester has always been a difficult semester for
most students in comparison to spring semester. With due
dates and pressures beginning in September and continuing
for about 12 weeks, burnout runs high. We have a mid-term
break in the spring which helps to alleviate the pressures of
academia.
We need a fall break. A fall break would give us a chance
to catch up on studying and a chance to relax. It would pro-vide
faculty a chance to catch up on work and also to relax.
We simply cannot function at our peaks for 12 weeks. A
break would allow us to gather our thoughts and catch up
on sleep, thus enabling us to perform during the last half of
the semester at a higher level.
Having a fall break would mean a new arrangement of the
calendar. We would have to start earlier as most other
schools do. We need to seriously consider the addition of a
break and what the implications would be on our physical
health, academic performance and psychological health.

celebrates Scandinavia
by Amy Goss
"Scandinavia Today" is a
nine-month American cele-bration
of contemporary Scan-dinavian
culture. This cele-bration
is planned for three
American cities, and opened
in Minneapolis Friday, Sept.
10.
A visit from King Olav V of
Norway on Oct. 5 -9 and the
upcoming tour of Swedish
royalty highlight the celebra-tion.
Cultural events through-out
the Twin Cities carry a
Scandinavian emphasis, too.
Major performing centers and
museums have scheduled
Scandinavian exhibitions,
performing centers and mu-seums
have scheduled Scan-dinavian
exhibitions, con-certs,
and productions as part
of this season's offerings.
Sept. 11 was the celebra-tion
at the Hubert H. Humph-rey
Metrodome. Three of Scan-dinavia's
best known choirs
plus top Twin Cities profes-sional
choirs joined to form a
7,000 member choir. Bethel
was asked to participate in
this choir, and 47 alumni,
faculty and administration
members, and students joined
in the celebration. They were
accompanied by the Minne-sota
Concert Band.
The 7,000 voice core choir
was joined by the audience to
form a massive choir of over
40,000 people. This broke the
record for the world's largest
choir.

'N0000," the rag puppet shrieked as it tumbled through the
air. The puppet made a muffled thump as it hit the wall on the
opposite side of the bedroom. As eight-year-old Billy sat on the
edge of his bed and stared at the lifeless lump of rags the
puppet did it again, it spoke. "You little cuss, can't you see how
much you hurt me?"
'You can't hurt, you're not real," Bills retorted.
"Heck if I'm not!" The lump of rags on the floor began to
move.
"Stop moving," Bills said as he hopped down off the bed and
walked over to the puppet. "You're an object, and objects can't
feel." Billy bent down, picked the puppet up by a leg and
winged it across the room. The puppet made no sound as it
rolled off the top of the dresser and then on to the floor. "That
should teach you, you stupid puppet."
"Teach me what?" the puppet asked, "that you have no
feelings either?"
"I have feelings." Billy shrugged his shoulders. "I'm real."
"Why do you treat me like a toy then?" The puppet sat us and
leaned against the wall.
"Because that's what you are." Billy smiled.
"That's where you're wrong. You don't see how real I am.
Who do you play with when your friends can't play? Who do
you talk to when no one else will listen? Who do you hold on to
when you cry? Who do you tell secrets to when you don't want
anyone else to hear? Who do you hurt when you become
angry? Huh, answer me this." The puppet refastened the
safety pin that secured his right hand to the arm.
"You, I guess." Billy sat on the edge of the bed with a
confused look on his face.
"Then how can I not be real?" questioned the puppet.
"I'm not sure, but I guess you really feel." Billy picked up the
puppet from off the floor and set it on the pillow next to him.
The puppet smiled as it looked up at Billy. "Many times
actions are misunderstood and it's easy to hurt someone you
care for. I know that you feel, Billy, I just needed to hear it from
you."
"You spoke, you are more than a toy. Honest." Billy climbed
under the covers and hugged the puppet tight as he fell asleep.
The next morning as the sun shown bright through the
window the puppet woke up, put Billy back in the toy box and
went off to school. .

Attitude key in coping with stress
by Tammy Gregersen
With winter approaching,
preparations must be made to
ensure efficient snow remov-al
and human comfort in the
buildings. The physical plant
has these adjustments already
underway.,
"We haVe a contractor, Ash-back
Construction Company,
that comes in when we get
two inches of snow or more,"
said Ron Sprecher, head
groundsman in the physical
plant. "They plow 3 rows in
the East lot, the entire West
lot, and if there's a lot of snow
on the roads, they help there,
too. They have both a grader
and a front loader."
"We (Bethel) have two
trucks with snow plows," said
Sprecher. "We do most of the
plowing and sanding of the
roads. Bethel has just recently

purchased two new pieces of

"We shovel all the walks,
too," said Sprecher. "Two sem-iinnaarryy
students who live on
campus get up during the early
morning and start the remov-al
prOCess."
Sprecher encourages people
to be patient and drive slowly.
"I don't know what's going
to happen," he said. "There
are more vehicles on campus
than ever before. Where peo-ple

won't be able to park after it

by Sandy Holasek
A feeling commonly shared
by college students at mid-semester
is that of being over-whelmed.
The classic scene is
a student who has stayed up
all night catching up on home-work
only to realize a 10-page
paper is due for tomorrow.
"Stress is basically tension
that can be generated by a
gap between expectation and
reality," said W. Muck, professor
of psychology. According to
Flossie Winquist, director of
Health Service, there are two
types of stress—physical and
emotional. Today most peo-ple
think of stress as bad, but
according to Muck this is not
true. "Stress is not good or
bad in itself, but rather in
what we let it do to us."
to put snow piles. It will defi-nitely
be a challenge."
Jim Woods, director of the
physical plant said, "Adjust-ments
must be made inside as
well as outside. We change
over from air conditioning to
heating. The change-over per-iod
is difficult, with some
days being hot and others
being cold."
"We also check out the heat-ing
systems," said Woods. "We
make sure the pumps and
boilers are working properly
and check the fuel supply."
- "We usually burn gas in the
boilers but the utility com-pany
has the right to deny us
more gas in extremely cold
One of the main causes of
stress is change. Change in
lifestyle occurs through such
things as personal loss or job
changes. Winquist said com-mon
stress that occurs with
college students is change
through breaking up of rela-tionships
and interpersonal
roommate relationships. She
emphasized changes freshmen
go through in separation from
home and unrealistic expec-tations
of the homework level.
Stress can stem from an ideal-istic
view of oneself or others,
said Muck.
The first signs of stress are
"confusion, lack of energy or
inability to sort things out,"
said Muck. Stress can also
lead into physical symptoms.
According to Winquist, it is
weather when the demand is
high," said Woods. "NSP calls
and tells us we must burn oil
instead of gas, so we use our
underground storage tanks."
often hard to distinguish be-tween
stress and disease. Stu-dents
who come in with head-aches,
rashes or increased
blood pressure might be ex-periencing
the results of stress.
Muck and Winquist agree
that stress is a problem at
Bethel. "Stress becomes un-manageable
at mid-semester
when the individual realizes
the semester is half over but
only one tenth of the work is
done," said Muck. After the
first month of school the stress
starts and keeps rising," said
Winquist.
Certain characteristics can
cause some individuals to be
more bothered by stress than
others. An example Muck
gave was the unstructured
individual who refuses to set
priorities. However, accord-ing
to Winquist, people who
are high-strung or perfection-ists
who are too organized are
also prone to stress.
Muck said students should
ask themselves two questions:
1) Are you realistic in your
expectations? 2) Have you
made a schedule for all you
have to do? By answering
these questions the student
can decide what the priorities
are. Another key, according
to Winquist, is talking prob-lems
over with a close friend.
Taking a break and exercis-ing
can also relieve frustra-tions.
Learning how to cope with
stress will make midterms
bearable and other tough situ-ations
liveable. "Stress is a
fact of life; the key is learning
how to handle it and how to
have the right attitude," said
Winquist.
"Stress is a particular
American problem," said
Muck. "Use it instead of let-ting
it destroy you."

The Anorexic/Bulimic Sup-port
Group provides support
and encouragement for those
individuals who have these
eating disorders.
Anorexia Nervosa is a com-plex
and sometimes fatal dis-order
that afflicts a largely
young, female population.
This quest for thinness had
dramatically increased over
the past ten years. Bulimia is
similar in the desire for being
thin but this disorder deals
with hinging food followed
by vomiting.
Beth Peterson, instructor of
psychiatric and mental health
nursing, was recruited by
Marilyn Starr one year ago to
attend a seminar for anorexia
and bulimia. After attending
a workshop, she became in-terested
in starting a support
group.
"Our primary function is to
support one another. It's a
hard thing to be anorexic or
bulimic because other people
can't understand their [those
suffering from the disorders]
feelings and emotions,"
Peterson said.
During the weekly sessions,
attended by four or five stu-ner
for parents, students, and
teachers, in honor of Dr.
George K. Brushaber, the
fourth president of Bethel Col-lege
and Seminary. The stu-dents
and parents may use
the student's meal plan to pay
for the dinner.
Entertainment for the eve-ning
will be by John and Caro-lyn
Nordquist, duo-pianists;
Brian Sundberg, violinist; and
the Women's Choir. Beth Kuh-nen
and Reverend Frank Doten
will speak on student and
parent expectations of a pres-ident.
Dr. Brushaber will close
the program.
dents, the group attempts to
solve problems in both social
and Christian perspectives
while encouraging changes in
behavior, Peterson said.
Peterson is concerned with
how the Bethel community
responds to anorexia and
bulimia.
Encouragement is neces-sary
because these women
face an ongoing struggle with
eating, Peterson said. "Some-times
even a simple walk
through the cafeteria is an
extremely difficult experi-ence."
Committee
by Bonnie Coleman
For the second consecutive
year, the Student Center
Forum Committee will organ-ize
and host forums that deal
with controversial issues per-tinent
to the Bethel commun-ity.
The committee was formed
last interim by Greg Hamann,
director of residence life for
management, and former sen-ator,
senior Ron Nelson. "We
said that there wasn't any-thing
being done to raise
awareness on campus," ex-plained
Hamann.

Under the guidance of the
campus ministries staff and
Gospel Team Coordinator
Amy Koelz, eight gospel teams
have become involved in min-istering
to people in the Twin
Cities area.
"There are a lot of purposes
for the forming of gospel
teams," said Koelz. "The pri-mary
one is ministering.. The
gospel teams are a channel for
ministry, to glorify God and
to minister to people."
Four of the groups are re-turning
from last year, while
the others are new. Once audi-tions
for new people were
completed, and new groups
The Special Projects Com-mittee
of the Student Senate
will oversee the forum com-mittee
this year. "The purpose
of the forum committee is to
bring five to ten people to-gether
from the student body
to determine, and successfully
communicate, controversial
issues students are interested
in, or aren't sufficiently aware
of," said senior Dennis Fuller,
chairman of the Special Pro-jects
Committee.
Forums last year focused
on political issues in Central
America and the Middle East.
formed, it was time for work.
Each of the new groups had to
choose a name, pick out music,
and decide rehearsal times.
There are guidelines for the
music that can be performed,
said Koelz, but most of it is
just common sense.
Koelz and campus minis-tries
are responsible for the
concerts that the gospel teams
perform. Occasionally a team
member wants to do a concert
at a certain organization in
the area (for example, a home
church). This has to be cleared
and arranged by Koelz and
campus ministries, and usu-ally
the idea becomes reality.
"They gave me a better under-standing
of current issues, pre-senting
the pros and cons,"
said junior Steve Van Sickle.
"Forums give students a
chance for ownership, taking
a stance on an issue," Hamann
said. "They're also an arena
where Bethel's student organ-izations,
like the Peace and
Justice Committee, can get
involved."
According to Fuller, this
year's forum committee will
try to explore a major world
and political issue, along with
an "in-house" issue unique to
At the beginning of the
semester, Koelz sent letters to
150 churches and organiza-tions
in the area, telling them
of the availability of Bethel
gospel teams for concerts.
The amount of music done
in a concert is usually decided
by the host organization,
whether it is ten minutes or
an hour. Singing, though, said
Koelz, is not the only thing
the groups do.
"They (the gospel teams)
do a lot of sharing and wit-nessing.
We encourage them
to spend their time after con-certs
talking with people, just
talkng and sharing with them
for a while," said Koelz.
Koelz explained that being
part of a gospel team is an
outreach for the students. It
gives them an outlet, develop-ing
the group members' abili-ties
to communicate and wit-ness.
Although the majority of
performances given by gospel
teams are done at churches,
they are not the only places.
Youth conventions, caps, ban-quets,
and nursing homes are
other locations that are visited
by gospel teams.
"Promise" has made a chap-el
appearance this year, and
Koelz is hoping that more of
the groups will be used in
chapel services. She looks for
them to become a bigger part
of Bethel activities throughout
the year.
"The groups are fantastic
this year," said Koelz. "They

"Unlike last year, I
want the forums to concen-trate
less on political issues,"
said Fuller. "I'd like to see
some other issues students
can learn from. and interact
with." Four forums are ex-pected
to be organized this
year.
The committee will design
a format to present the par-ticular
issues to Bethel. Last
year's committee brought in
speakers who were actively
involved with the issues, and
showed movies explaining
those issues.
"We had good speakers last
year," Van Sickle said. "They
fired up interests in me for
potential involvement that
weren't there before."
Although applications for
the committee were due Oct.
15, Fuller stressed that stu-dents
with ideas for forums
should place them in the Spe-cial
Projects Committee bas-ket

Shuttle service depends on demand
by Tim Nelson
Are you tired of
hitch-hiking, bumbing rides
or borrowing your roommate's
car? If so, you might be inter-ested
in the idea of a shuttle
service to Rosedale and Har-
Mar malls.
"The service will take peo-ple
to the malls and possibly
to jobs close by," said Paul
Drake, director of auxiliary
services.
No date has been set to
start the service. "We're run-ning
a statistically sound feas-ibility
survey of students to
see if they need the service,"
said Brad Smuland, student
by Deborah Nelson
Students are well aware of
rising tuition costs, but few
are aware of campaigns like
the Royal Investors Dinner,
which collects money to lower
student payments.
"We estimate a student
would have to pay about
$1000 more a year if we didn't
have fund-raising events like
the dinner," said Dan Wier-sum,
director of annual fund.
"It affects students more than
they sometimes realize."
An annual financial appeal
gathers alumni and friends
for a complimentary dinner,

distribution of pledge cards

The dinner has become a
On Oct. 29-30 Bethel was
represented at the Pike's Peak
Invitational at Colorado Col-lege,
one of the largest debate
tournaments in the country.
Over 40 colleges and univer-sities
and almost 70 debate
teams engaged in competition,
debating the national resolu-tion—"
Resolved: That a uni-lateral
freeze by the United
States on the production and
development of nuclear weap-ons
would be desirable." This
is the third year that Bethel
has sent teams to this tourna-ment.
Representing Bethel in de-bate
were Gordon Fowler and
Debbie Van Mark along with
D. Scott Williamson and Laura
Stratton. In the eight rounds
of competition Fowler and Van
Mark secured a 4-4 record
and Williamson and Stratton
pulled off a 3-5 record.
In individual competition,
senior Mike Wiseman made it
to the semi-finals in impromp-tu
speaking and took second
place in communication analy-sis
with a prepared speech
in charge of the survey. "De-cember
is the projected date if
approved by the administra-tion,
with the service becom-ing
effective in January," he
said.
"The shuttle service is pos-sible
if people will use it,"
said Drake. "At 25 cents a
ride—each way-15.5 riders
will be needed each trip to
break even. That means we
would need 3,229.6 riders per
month to avoid a loss," he
added.
The service would make

This year the guest list had to
be limited to 3400. The Sept. 1
event grossed $139,000 in gifts
and pledges.
The success of the function
prompted the public affairs
office to consider holding the
dinner in additional locations.
Three regional cities: Chicago,
Denver and Seattle, were
proposed because of the large
concentration of alumni.
"The Investors Dinners give
us a chance to communicate
Bethel to our major donors,"
said Gerry Wessman, assis-tant
to the vice president in
public affairs. "It is exciting
to include more cities."

rance, labor and rental of a

An alternative source of
transportation would be car
pools. "There is a possibility
of using students' cars for the
car pools," said Smuland.
"The whole project depends
upon the student response to
show a need to the adminis-tration,"
said Smuland.
Even if the administration
approves of the service, it
would have to pay for itself to
be continued. In 1980, Bethel
had a similar service for a few
months, but it was cancelled
when students failed to fill
the seats.
The Oct. 29 Seattle dinner
attracted approximately 85
guests and collected $4,160.
Pres. Brushaber addressed
each audience with a speech
entitled "A Due Sense of
Responsibility." The 30 min-ute
talk emphasized the en-couragement
Bethel students
receive to live up to their
Christian duties.
A musical production, di-rected
by Julie Bjoin, was pre-sented
at the St. Paul and
Chicago dinners. Bjoin, a 1982
Bethel graduate, led a seven-member
student and alumni
group in the piano-accom-panied
performance. Finan-cial
considerations prevented
the production's travel to the
Seattle dinner.
A- program patterned after
the Royal Investors dinner is
the Sunbelt Dinner. The early
spring event is actually a se-ries
of dinners held in Florida
and Arizona. The appeals are
designed to inform and attract
retired people who are friends
of Bethel. "We don't look for
immediate money from the
Sunbelt Dinners," Wiersum
reports, "but use them as a
cultivating tool to keep peo-ple
interested in Bethel."

The Campus Coordinators
are sponsoring a spring ski
vacation for all Bethel stu-dents.
The group will travel
to Salt Lake City, Utah, for
five full days of downhill ski-ing
at a cost of $285.
Included in the price are
round-trip bus fare, lodging
for seven nights plus a free
pass to a health spa, large
daily breakfasts, and five
days of lift tickets.
The group will be staying
at the Quality Inn in Salt Lake
City. There will be four stu-dents
to a room.
"The bus we take out will
shuttle to approximately nine
of the surrounding areas," said
Tom Persico. These areas are:
Sundance, Snowbird, Alta,
Solitude, Brighton, Park City,
Deer Valley, Park West, and
Parley's Summit.
There are presently 49 re-served
spaces for the group.
"We will probably add another
bus if more than that sign up,"
Persico says.
Although Bethel's orches-tra
has been part of the col-lege
for a number of years, the
idea to have the outside com-munity
join was recent. The
ages of the musicians range
from college to retirement,
with a few high school stu-dents.
According to Olson, having
a community orchestra is an
excellent opportunity to dem-onstrate
what the liberal arts
concept involves. It gives con-tinuing
experience to the
adult amateur player and
shows the student that there
is a reason to continue play-ing
_once out of school.
Each student will be asked
to sign a contract/agreement
covering such things as insur-ance
and the Lifestyle State-ment.
"There will be no cur-fews,
but those violating the
lifestyle will be flown home
at their expense, and we will
not hesitate to do that," said
Persico.
There will be a payment
schedule for the trip begin-ning
with a $50 deposit due
November 8. Three $50. pay-ments
will be made during
the weeks of December 6 to
10, January 10 to 14, and Feb-ruary
14 to 18. A final pay-.
ment will be made during the
week of March 7 to 11.
Persico advises students
who do not have their own
equipment to rent it before
the trip. "It'll be less of a has-sle
that way," he said.
"Lessons will be extra, and
will have to be arranged on
your own once we get out
there if you want to take
them," said Persico.
The music department lo-cates
musicians in the area by
advertising in local papers
and churches or it contacts
individuals such as alumni.
Olson, who has conducted
the orchestra in previous
years, said, "I enjoy it very
much because it gives me an-other
opportunity in music
literature and to enjoy the
medium."
The music literature to be
selected for the concert per-formances
will range from
Mozart's era to the present and
include pieces from the bar-oque,
classical and romantic
,periods.

Nurse with Ecuadorian experience loins faculty
by Lori Boberg
A colorful picture collage of
friends from Ecuador hangs
in Nancy Larson's office. It
recalls the 13 years of her
nursing career that were spent
there. Larson, a new faculty
member, is an assistant pro-fessor
in nursing.
Two years after finishing
her nursing degree, Larson
had her first encounter with
Ecuador. She worked for a
summer there. "I hated it,"
said Larson, adding that she
was miserable the whole time.
During the next four years
she gained experience by prac-ticing
and teaching nursing in
Minneapolis.
While Larson was teaching
at Methodist Hospital's
School of Nursing in Minnea-polis,
the director of nurses
there heard Larson speak neg-atively
of Ecuador. The direc-tor
said to her, "You go back
to Ecuador." Larson said she
was told not to return home
until she had something posi-tive

by Mark C. Anderson
Trap Door, a new mini LP
by singer-songwriter T-Bone
Burnett, is an album of high
artistic craft and deep corn-passion.
Burnett looks at the
world with his Christ-tinted
vision and finds desperate,
alienated people who have
fallen into its trap doors. With
his honest vision and keen
artistry he has come up with
an album that succeeds on
many levels.
T-Bone Burnett has been
largely influenced by some of
the '60s major pop figures.
His well-crafted lyrics and
folksy, articulate, quivering
voice show a strong Bob
Dylan influence (he was form-erly
in Dylan's Rolling Thun-der
Revue); his guitar and
vocal harmonies echo the
Byrds; and his overall pop/
rock sensibilities have traces
of the Beatles. He has stored
these influences and added
his own distinct style to them.
When I found out that
Burnett is a Christian I lis-tened
to the album with the
specific intention of finding
Christian themes in it. After
playing the first few songs I
felt somewhat let doWn. The
songs said a lot about people
in the world but didn't seem
to say enough about his spir-itual
answer to their situa-tions.
But after a few good
spins of the album, in which I
had made a contribution there.
Larson resigned and left for
Ecuador, planning to be gone
only one year.
Larson began working with
World Radio Missionary Fel-lowship
in its large health
care division. She worked at
missionary hospitals and was
then "loaned" to several other
nursing organizations to work
and teach.
In her role of "equipping
Ecuadorian nurses education-ally
and spiritually" Larson
said she was most committed
to the spiritual aspect. She
spent time working for
Nurses' Christian Fellowship,
an international oi"ganization
listened to what he was saying
instead of looking for what I
wanted to hear, the message
began to sink in.
The last song on the album,
"Trap Door," provides the fo-cus
for the rest of the album.
It is a song full of paradoxes
and it warns against getting
caught on the wrong side of
the paradox. "It's a funny
thing about humility," he
sings," as soon as you know
you're being humble, you're
no longer humble. It's a funny
thing about life—you have to
give up your life to be alive."
Seems to me I've heard that
somewhere before. He sees
that all people are walking,
alone thrugh life and must be .,
aware of the obstacles ip, their:
path, "Tonight we find our-selves
alone at last—watch
out for the trap door."
The rest of the album gives
vignettes of people who have
inspired his need to give this
warning. The opening song,
"Hold on Tight," with its tasty
guitar harmonies and its tone
concerned with evangelism
and discipleship. Throughout
her years in Ecuador Larson
said she was actively involved
in preparing and equipping
Ecuadorian nurses to become
spiritual leaders.
An emphasis on spiritual
preparation is very much a
part of her life. She said she
sees nursing holistically—the
spiritual and practical as-pects
are related. Larson said
Bethel's nursing program will
"incorporate a spiritual per-spective"
while dealing with
practical issues.
Committed to training ha-

that is both victorious and
despairing, is about two des-perate
outcasts who were at
one time friends of the singer.
They have vanished into the
dark side of the world because
they are misunderstood by
the outside world—they are
"judged by fools." T-Bone tells
them with touching sincerity
to "have faith" and "hold on
tight" to life. He tells them, "I
love you like my own life."
His loyalty to these friends
comes through in the songs—
he is not just mouthing empty
words.
"Poetry" is a softer, tender
pop/rock love song. He de-scribes
his love as greater
than everything that he loves
most in life. Whether he is
expressing love towards God
or love towards a girl is not
entirely clear—there are prob-ably
elements of both. But it
is a surrender-all type of love
that is compatible with I Cor-inthians
13. In an album that
deals mainly with the darker
aspects of life, the power of
real love is shown as one
thing that can help people
avoid life's trap doors.
Burnett is a Christian
whose music will probably
be heard more by non-Chris-tians
than Christians, as he is
on Warner Brothers records.
He has already received glow-ing
reviews from the critics
and he could very well be the
songwriter of our decade.

Soccer squad sews up second place
by John Lilleberg
As the final week of confer-ence
play drew to a close, the
Bethel soccer team posted a
7-2-3 record—good for second
place in the MIAC.
The week began with a 4-0
loss to first-place St. John's.
Against the Johnnies, the
Royals were forced to make
line-up changes in the defense
and midfield in order to min-imize
the loss of injured
sweeper Steve Figini. The
changes included moving Bob-by
Clark to defense, Stan
Higgs to midfield and bring-ing
in Sheldon Milbridge in
place of Figini.
Before the team could adjust
to the changes, the Johnnies
had scored three times. The
combination of a powerful St.
John's squad, a small field
and a new line-up proved too
difficult to overcome as the

she wishes to "prepare nurses
to function as Christians in a
personal setting." National
nurses multiply the efforts of
a single teacher, in this case
Larson, by training others.
"I went to _Ecuador to give,
but it turned out that I was
the_ learner," said Larson. "I
think it takes a long time
before North Americans can
make a contribution in an
underdeveloped country,"
said Larson. She believes in
short-term mission programs,
but said they can be very dis-couraging.
A person cannot
develop a support system in a
short time, said Larson, add-ing
that a longer commitment
is needed.
"I think it's too difficult to
work internationally if you
have never worked across cul-tural
lines." Larson feels that
experience working with near-by
culturally-different groups
is needed to provide skills
that can be applied inter-nationally.
Larson is excited about the
opportunity to be part of a
brand new nursing program
at Bethel. "I see myself as a
trail blazer in the Bethel nurs-ing
program," she said.
Larson attended Bethel for
two years before finishing her
nursing program at North
Park College in Chicago. After
returning to Minneapolis she

Things looked almost as
bleak against Gustavus when
the Gusties were up 2-0 mid-way
through the second half.
At this point, a Bobby Clark
goal brought the Royals to
within a point of the Gusties.
Clark's goal seemed to fire the
team up and they began to put
pressure on the Gusties. Late

The Bethel JV soccer team
wrapped up its season with a
loss to St. Thomas 0-1. The
squad completed its season
with a 5-7-1 record, including
five games against varsity
teams from other colleges.
Steve Hunt said, "It was a
disappointing way to end a
fine season. We'll be back rear-ing
to go next fall."
"I think the guys gave it all
they had. We kept the con-stant
flow of substitutes, so
everyone, all 17 guys on the
team, contributed in a note-worthy
manner," JV soccer
coach Brian Bohne said.
"St. Thomas was very_ ag-gressive
and was able to clear
the ball out of the scoring area
before we could capitalize on
the scoring attempt. Since
they were able to control the
ball, it eliminated our offen-sive
attack," Steve "Baldy"
Bauman said.

Gustie goalie to tie the score
at 2-2. The game ended in a
tie, marking the second time
the Royals had come from
behind to tie Gustavus this
season.
Despite the loss to St. John's
and the second-place finish,
the Royals are the defending
state champions. This week
they will seek to defend that
title at the NAIA District 13
playoffs.
"We weren't quite aggres-sive
enough, but we played a
good game," Mark Strohbehn
said.
Coach and announcer Bohne
provided comments which
gave the players and fans
spirit and encouragement.
Bohne said, "I think we fin-ished
up with a real special
bond that we developed
throughout the season, on and
off the field and through extra
activities."
One of the main goals of
this year's squad was to en-courage
and uplift teammates
through positive reinforce-ment.
Bohne was especially
proud of the fact that he
"didn't hear a single negative
word addressed to team-mates."
On Bohne's office door is a
note stating that if the team
defeats St. Thomas, the coach
takes a leap into Lake Valen-tine.
If the team loses, the
whole squad will take a dive.

' The women's cross-country
team finished fifth—or third,
depending on how you want
to add it up—at the ten-team
MIAC conference champion-ship
Saturday, Oct. 30. St.
Thomas won the meet hand-ily
with only 17 points; Bethel
officially had 140.
Due to an eligibility rule,
the Royals' Kala Neuroth was
not officially counted in the
scoring. The rule added at
least 20 points to the Royals'

The Bethel football team
played Hamline evenly
throughout its Oct. 30 con-test,
but it was the big play
that hurt the Royals as it has
previously this season. The
Pipers won 21-8.
The Royals and Pipers bat-tled
to a 0-0 halftime dead-lock
as neither team could
find the end zone. In the third
quarter, though, Hamline jump-ed
into a 14-0 lead within a
minute.
The Pipers scored on a long
third-down play and then re-covered
the ensuing kick-off
and scored again. Another
touchdown in the final quar-ter
gave Hamline a 21-0 lead.
Bethel managed to get into
the end zone with five min-utes'
remaining and scored on

The Bethel volleyball team
went through a week of up-and-
down play as the team
began tuning up for the con-ference
tournament that be-gins
Nov. 5 at Macalester.
The Royals go into the
tournament as the fourth seed,
after compiling a 7-2 confer-ence
record. The MIAC tour-ney
will continue through
Nov. 6.
In preparation for today's
matches the Royals began
their week of play nearly up-setting
the defending regional
champion, St. Catherine. In
the match played on Oct. 26
the two teams went five games
with St. Kate 'coming out on
top by 10-15, 15-2, 15-5, 15-11
and 15-8 scores.
Although coach Cindy Book
was happy to take St. Kate's
to the limit, she was disap-pointed
her team didn't win
the match outright.

20th. Had she been counted
. officially, Neuroth would
have helped the team to a
third-place finish.
Linda Channer and Wendy
Norberg had fine individual
performances for Bethel, as
their respective fifth- and
sixth-place finishes prevented
St. Thomas from sweeping
the meet with a perfect score.
Leah Schirm was 30th,
Debbie Hernandez 47th, the
Rochelle Kaehne 55th to
complete Bethel's official scor-a
two-point conversion for
the final margin.
"I think if we could have
scored first it would have
been a different ballgame,"
said offensive coordinator
Dave Anderson, whose team
tried to establish the pass as
its means of attack.
The passing game did work
well for the most part, al-though
four interceptions
slowed things down. Bryan
Johnson had 12 catches and
broke the school record for
receptions in a season. John-son
has 54 receptions for the
year, 10 more than the pre-vious
mark, set in 1967.
Bethel goes against nation-ally
ranked teams in its final
two contests of the season.
On Nov. 6 the Royals take on
St. Thomas on the Tommies'
home turf, with the kickoff
set for 1 p.m.
"It's taken us three years to
get to the point where we can
play with teams like St.
Kate's," said Book. "And al-though
they are a good team,
we should have beaten them."
The Royals got off to a
quick start, winning the first
game, but dropped the next
two games. Bethel rallied to
force the fifth game and even
led 8-7 at one point.
"When we picked up the
pace they couldn't handle it,"
said Book of her team's play.
"They would lull the pace and
we would fall asleep."
In Bethel's second match of
the week against St. Benedict
on Oct. 28, the women went
into a deep sleep on two occa-sions
yet still managed to win
in five games 14-16, 15-13, 15-
3, 13-15 and 15-3.
Bethel led the first game 14-
3 but dropped the next 13
points and the game. The
Royals lost the fourth game in
a similar manner, leading 13-
ing of the meet.
Coach Bill Lau said he was
happy with the meet, even
though he felt the girls could
have done a little better. "But
we were just happy that Linda
(Channer) finished the race,"
he said. "She hadn't run hard
at all the last week and a half
before the meet, and she
probably won't be able to run
hard for at least another week
and a half." he added.
• Channer will have two
weeks to recover from her leg
injury, as the Royals are idle
this week. The team's next
meet will be the NCAA re-gional
championships in Pella,
Iowa on Nov. 13.

"Skillwise it was no con-test,"
commented Book. "but
St. Ben's had some persever-ence.
We had trouble when
we stopped communicating.
As soon as we started talking
and listening, it wasn't even
close."

The St. John's cross coun-try
team ran away with the
MIAC conference champion-ship
on Oct. 30 while St.
Thomas star Nick Manciau
set a new meet record, win-ning
easily in 24:55.
St. Thomas was second as
a team, followed by Hamline
in third and St. Olaf in fourth.
Bethel's team tied with Con-cordia
for fifth, Macalester
took seventh, Gustavus,
eighth, and St. Mary's was a
distant ninth.
The meet was a mixture of
success and disappointment
for the Bethel team. Accord-ing
to Coach Whittaker, "it
was not a good race for us as a
team, though some of our in-dividuals
had outstanding
performances."
Greg Wallace led the squad
with a personal record time of
25:49, finishing eleventh over-all.
The only factor to mar
Wallace's excellent perfor-mance
was missing his goal
of top ten all-conference
honors ... by only one second.

In the week's final match

26:35 and were 27th and 28th,
respectively. Whybrew ran 18
seconds faster than he did in
this meet last year, even
though the course was chang-ed
to a tougher, hillier route.
Tom Plocker was fourth for
the Royal varsity (27:12), fol-lowed
by Mark Channer
(28:04), Curt Wilken (28:08),
and Matt Simpson (28:10).
Wilken's time was his per-sonal
best, as was Shawn
Goodsell's, who ran 28:20 for
the eighth Royal position.
Coach Whittaker empha-sized
the improvement of this
year's squad over previous
Royal teams. Last year
Bethel's second runner ran
27:46 in this meet, while this
year's top four were well
under that. But the whole con-ference
has improved too.
"Last season in this race six
men ran under 26 minutes;
this year more than 12 men
did," said Whittaker.

Saturday, Nov. 6, at 11 a.m. at
